make bzImage keeps stopping with fatal signals. I have tried this many times with and without doing make mrproper first. I always do make dep and make clean before make bzImage.
I am trying to compile kernel 2.2.13 (the last one I compiled successfully was 2.0.35 more than a year ago). It will process fine for a while, sometimes getting near the very end before the fatal signal. If I start it again it will some times proceed further before stopping again. I even made it all the way through to the end once by starting it over and over, but the kernel it produced wouldn't boot. Here is the ouput from one of the errors: make[3]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux/fs/autofs' make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux/fs/autofs' make -C devpts make[2]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux/fs/devpts' make all_targets make[3]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux/fs/devpts' gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux/include -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe -fno-strength-reduce -m486 -malign-loops=2 -malign-jumps=2 - malign-functions=2 -DCPU=586 -c -o root.o root.c gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux/include -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe -fno-strength-reduce -m486 -malign-loops=2 -malign-jumps=2 - malign-functions=2 -DCPU=586 -c -o inode.o inode.c gcc: Internal compiler error: program cc1 got fatal signal 11 make[3]: *** [inode.o] Error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux/fs/devpts' make[2]: *** [first_rule] Error 2 make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux/fs/devpts' make[1]: *** [_subdir_devpts] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux/fs' make: *** [_dir_fs] Error 2 fnord:/usr/src/linux# There are lots of these and it never seems to happen in the same place. Sometimes I get fatal signal 6. I'd be very grateful if someone could tell be what to do (about this problem, that is). Thank you, David Densmore <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
